FACTS.
Twenty-vrn men -who are
prominent in a wide range of ac
tivities in Ore?on have written
articles for The Oregonian An
nual, which is to be issued next
Monday. Eaeh of these writers
was selected because he is highly
qualified to write about some par
ticular phase of civic, commercial
or industrial development of
Portland or of the state. The sto
ries they have to tell are eloquent
of progress and prosperity, yet
they are not overdrawn.
The Oregonian Annual has es
tablished a reputation not only of
being the best "booster" the
state has, but also of portraying
conditions without e.Tasrfreration.
So much is being accomplished in
Portland and in the state at large,
so many opportunities await tbe
settler, that the plain truth is all
Oregon needs to tell. Just a state
ment of facts such as the Annual
will contain is sufficient to at
tract to Oregon the attention of
thousands who live in less fa
vored sections. Besides the story
of advancement, so well told by
contributors and staff writers,
The Oregonian has compiled doz
ens of tables and prepared many
charts, presenting in statistical
form various phases of progress.
The price of the Annual will be
5 cents a copy. Postage in the
United States, to Canada, to Mex
ico or to our insular possessions
will be 5 cents a copy. Postage
to all other countries will be 10
cents a copy.
Tex Years' Easement Offered. Th
extension of Kerby street through
Montgomery tract In Lower Albtna,
being improved for railroad and factory
purposes, will come befor the street
committee for disposition next Friday.
George W. Brown, who represents
owners of the tract, has offered a ten
years' easement for the construction of
an elevated railway wincn win noi in
terfere with the ground underneath.
Th roadway is to be built In ten years.
Councilman Magulre objected to th
offer of a limited easement and want
It mad perpetual, a he considers a
limited easement la not desirable. The
roadway. If built, will be constructed
of steel or concrete, and will be from
four to flv blocks long. A delegation
from Lower Alblna will attend the
committee meeting: to urge that th
street be extended. An open street to
th Broadway and railroad bridges Is
sought.
East Bmxmarrn Eztexsiow Warra.
Viewers have mad their report for
tha extension of East Seventeenth
street through Midway, but the case
awaits anal action. Th viewers so
assessed a wide district to pay dam
ages and buy property that must be
appropriated to get the street opened
that th burden may be I lent. All
Sell wood was assessed to help pay th
damages. So far little objection has
been raised, but a technicality has
been raised. J. F. Kertchem, one of
the viewers, owns property In Sell
wood and his property was assessed.
Rules for appointing viewers provide
that they must not be interested in
th opening of streets viewed. Mr.
Kertchem said yesterday that h can
not see how th fact that his property
has been assessed has anything to do
with the opening of the street.
Chl-rck Puts Accepted. The build
Inp; commltte of the Westminster
Presbyterian Church has accepted the
plana and specifications of the stone
edifice to be built on the block bounded
by Kast Sixteenth. East Seventeenth,
Schuyler and Hancock streets, prepared
by Ellis F. Lawrence, architect, and
he was authorized to ask for bids for
excavating and stone work tha Drat
of the year. The building committee
has power from the congregation to
proceed with the construction of th
first unit of th church, containing th
auditorium and Sunday school depart
ment, which will be In the basement.
The commltte will let the first con
tracts unless the bids are higher than
expected. Construction Is expected to
start soon.

month the fines Imposed for violation
of the pur food laws aggregated f2S0.

Stat Ialry and Food Commissioner's

nection wtth cases of violation of the

New Game Licexsb Blanks Readt.
Consignments of the new fishing and
hunting license forms were forwarded
yesterday to the County Clerks of all
the counties In Oregon by th Stat
Game Warden. These forms are a de
parture from any previously used In

tions under the new licenses can be
mad on a perjury charge, which is not
the cas at present.

ae Co-, and four barrels misbranded as
Imported port by the California Winer

dling th wine, have been cited to ap
pear In court to explain their connec
tion with the misbranded wine.
The 1913 Michigan Fortt. New
lines long. low, straight, simple

grace the 1912 Michigan Forty. Beauty
in the dignified simplicity, the quiet
style, the graceful, practical doors,

plain masculine outline of the radiator
and the richness of sturdy, generous
fenders. Beauty in the culture of the
soft, deep cushions, the strong lamps

Is appealing. And beauty runs deep
In tha Michigan Forty, down to Its
strong, clean chassis, a good metal
feast to the man who loves a thing
well made, one need not be a mechanic
to enjoy this engineering. The car is
by far the best car ever put out by
the Michigan people and a machine of
grace and power. Some of the spe
cial features are the demountable rims,
self-starter and the electric generator
lighting system. One of these new
models was received this week by the
local branch and they state that they
have been working over time making
demonstrations ever since its arrival.

Educational Plan Varsity Presi
dent Addresses Teachers G.
A. Klce w Head.
Two subordinate organizations came
Into existence at the annual meeting
of th Weetern division of the Oregon
Teachers' Association yesterday after
noon. The new organizations are an
association of the city school superin
tendents of the state and an associa
tion of the county school supervisors.
The State Association of City School
Superintendents disposed of the bare
work of organization and election of
officers yesterday and will meet this
morning at !:30 o'clock to adopt a
constitution and outline Its work for
the future. J. M. Powers, superintend
ent of schools in Salem, was elected
president, and A. C. Strand, of The
Dalles, secretary. J. A. Churchill, of
Baker, and A. R. Turner, of Grants
Pass, were chosen members of the ex
ecutive committee. They will act with
the president and secretary, and L, R.
Alderman, State Superintendent of
Public Instruction, will be ex-offlclo
member of the executive committee.
The Association of County School
Supervisors will not confine Its mem
bership to supervisors alone, but in
tends including county school superin
tendents as well. This Idea was man
ifested In the election of T. J. Geary,
school superintendent of Clackamas
County, president of th association.
Publicity Pleas Big.
The organization proposes to work
for closer co-operation of the county
supervisors In all parts of th state.
Interchanging Ideas aud lending one
another assistance In solving the dif
ferent educational problems that arise.
Publicity for educational conditions In
the state is their aim. which they In
tend to reach by means of articles sub
mitted to the school Journals and pa
pers of Oregon. Miss Goldle Van
Bibber, of Mapleton, waa elected cor
responding secretary and will have
general charge of the publicity work
of the association. Other officers are:
Vice-president. G. W. Ager, of Talent,
Jackson County; secretary-treasurer,
J. H. Jack, of Hlllsboro.
p. L. Campbell, president of the Uni
versity of Oregon, addressed the teach
ers at th opening of the convention
yesterday morning on the relation of
the state institutions to the high
schools. Mr. Campbell aid that It was
not the Intention of the State Univer
sity to dictate to the high schools what
course of study they should follow.
The nine and one-half credits prereq
uisite to entrance In the State Univer
sity, he averred, were the standard
that prevailed throughout th United
States In practically all high schools.
After .entering the State University,
the course Is purely elective, he said,
and the only restriction placed on pre
paratory work Is the requirement that
at least one-sixth of It must be along
the lines of the major subject selected
after entering the university.
Rex Hygiene Dlaenaaed.
The subject of teaching sex hygiene
in th schools was dealt with In ad
dresses by Dr. W. T. Williamson and
W. T. Foster, president of Reed Col
lege. Dr. Williamson held that such
Instruction was needful In th public
schools, and pointed out evil results
that might follow lack of proper
knowledge of hygiene.
Dr. Foster said that th teachers of
sex hygiene In public schools should
have four qualifications thorough
knowledge of the subject, sincerity,
earnestness to the point of reverence,
and a knowledge of how to teach.
"The conventional attitude toward
the subject," he said, "is a crime
against civilization. It Is something
that should, above all else, be taught
in a proper manner, rather than leav
ing It to be picked up haphazard from
companions in the street or from
quacks whose greatest desire is to
keep people in Ignorance. Teaching
this subject Is attacking Ignorance and
not Innocence. Innocence is beauti
ful In a babe, but criminal In a boy
or girl of 12 or 15."
Frank Ripler, superintendent of
Portland schools, gave an address in
the afternoon session on "Retarda
tion." or the presence in the public
schools of a percentage of children
whose progress Is not up to the stand
ard It should be at their age.
Poor Attendance Blamed.
Retardation has long been held by
various authorities to be due chiefly
to physical defects, said Mr. Rigler.
While he did not belittle this as a
cause of slow progress among soma
school children. Mr. Rigler said that
It was to be blamed much more on ir
regularity of attendance Sickness he
pointed out as one of the cnief causes
for Irregular attendance, and also In
difference on the part of the pupils.
Remedies suggested were both social
and pedagogical. Proper food' and
clothing, he said, wouia oo mucn to
combat the physical causes or irreg
ular attendance, while those arising
tr&m indifference must b attended to
bv the school officers In arousing In
terest and In compelling attendance
hv truant officers.
The general election of officers for
the state association was held in th
morning, the following officers being
chosen: President. C. A. Rloe, Portland;
first vice-president, J. H. Ackerman,
of Monmouth; second vice-preeiaenc.

EVERY WEEK FOR ARTICLES ON
"HOW WE WON OUR HOMES"
The Portland Realty Board invites the homeowners of Portland
and vicinity to enter an essay contest for the best articles on ths
general topic, "How We Won Our Home," and offers the following
prizes each week:
FIRST PBIZE, $25
SECOND PRIZE, $10
THIRD PRIZE, $5
The articles should deal with actual, concrete personal experiences
of home-winning and home-building, setting forth, step by step, the
progress toward the achievement, from the time of making the first
payment on a lot or acreage to the realization of the ambition. It
is not necessary that homes be entirely paid for. Articles will appear
in The Sunday Oregonian. Photographs are desirable, but will not
be considered in awarding prizes. The right is reserved of running
in The Sunday Oregonian stories not awarded prizes. The following
simple directions should be observed:
1. Articles should not be more than 800 words in length.

a homeowner's family. j
